Do insurance companies have to be told what you are having done?

Do the insurance companies have to be told that you are having a gastric bypass or can you just go in there for scar tissue removal from previous surgery and gall bladder removal? Do doctors have to tell them everything? Is it illegal? I know some hospitals tie tubes at catholic hospitals when a c-section is involved and don't imform the hospitals. I was just wondering
